A Bad Case of the Monday's


Not only is it COFFEE MONDAY, but it is also Meatless Monday.  I am starting a new meal plan with my family, and one thing I wanted to implement was a few meatless meals.  So after some research ( ok let's be real.....pinterest pinning), I have found a few meatless dishes that I think I can sneak by my family of boys.

So what is the big deal with meatless meals??  Well, not only is it a healthier option...in most cases.  It also saves money on groceries for the week.

Here are a few ideas I found:

1.  Ravioli with tomato sauce and salad
2.  Black beans, rice and taco fixins
3.  Pasta Figioli
4. Spinach Lasagna
5.  Baked Potato and Salad
6.  Tortalini Soup and Salad

Over the next few weeks I will try a few recipes out and pin my favorite ones.

I would be happy to hear from you as to what your favorite meatless dishes are for you and your family.

New Year, New Resolutions, New Blog

So here it is....my New Year's Resolution.  ( Only a few days early) This is not my first attempt at starting a blog.  I hope however, that it is my last.  I'd like to see it flourish and become something great.  Maybe it will.  I know that it will take lots of work, lots of time and lots of patience for it to grow into what I have in mind.

I won't tell you that I plan to write daily.  What if it doesn't happen???  I wouldn't want to let you down.  Or really....myself.  I plan to set realistic goals for this blog.

So why the name???

It's purpose is really not to show you a glimpse of MY LIFE....but rather things I have found that work for me, my family and our life.  And maybe some things that don't work.  LIBERTY, well that is easy it is the name of my hometown.  AND THE PURSUIT OF COFFEE, well if you know me...there are not many days that go by without some coffee in hand.

So here it is....follow along, I plan for it to be a beautiful ride!
